But beyond the hysteria of phantom death panels, where is the abomination? Show me the provisions that will hurt consumers, because if you think a $110 billion a year tax break for working-class Americans to buy private health insurance is a government takeover, I welcome the debate.
We know there is real interest from the American public in having easy access to the new, affordable choices in the Health Insurance Marketplace.
Of course, plenty of people don't think that guaranteeing affordable health insurance is a core responsibility of government.
I'm one of the people that, when I hear Republicans talk about repealing Obamacare, I just want to roll my eyes. Republicans talk about reform to the healthcare, and they talk about selling insurance across state lines, and that's their solution?
I call this 'boss Obamacare.' The only health care that citizens of this country can access are those approved by the boss.
We need to reform the health code so that people are incentivized to buy their own health insurance rather than have to get it through an employer.
We should work to de-link health insurance from employment so if you lose your job, your health insurance goes with you and it is personal, portable and affordable.
By admitting they have no contingency plan to assist the millions that may lose subsidies, the administration confirms how the misguided law is unworkable for the American people. I’m committed to working with my Republican colleagues on how Congress can respond to help those hurt by Obamacare’s broken promises.
